I have a summaized summarized a part of a book, plz please correct it.

David went to see the lawyer Mr Rankeillor, he said told him all of his adventures to that lawyer and heard what had happened between his father and his uncle, then they decided to go towards shaws the Shaws house, at there the his uncle accepted that shaws the house belonges belonged to David, so he agreed to pay him money to David every year.

Hi Omid,

I moved a few things around, such as the description of Mr Rankeillor, as it didn't sound right to say his name, and then later refer to him as "that lawyer".

When I first read it, I didn't even realise that Rankeillor was the lawyer you were talking about, but I used google and found the book you are reading!

(Kidnapped by Robert Louis Stevenson).

"shaws", until finding the book, I wasn't sure how to change this.

if "Shaw" is a person, then Shaw's would be how you talk about ownership/

if "Shaws" is a person, you would write it like Shaws' (The name already ends with an "s", so you put the apostrophe after).

In this case however it is "The house of Shaws", which is similar to "The House of Windsor" (in the UK).

I'm not sure how to better describe it, it is not used often in modern English.

I hope that helps, please let me know if you want me to explain something better :)
